Well now the D is back. I drank apple juice (Apple and Eve brand) during lunch.

I'm hoping it's fr the apple juice. Do you get the D from apple juice? I thought apples was supposed to do the opposite!

Thanks

u might have a problem with fructose. google Fructose Malabsorption. i think it's based on new studies out of Australia... but after months of being doubled over in pain- i found info on it- and it completely rang true for me. i still have to eliminate some other things-probably some sugar & grains, and of course dairy.. BUT- i can tell u- since i stopped eating my daily pears, and also avoided other high fructose things like dates, apple juice, HFCS, and too much in one sitting of bananas or prunes-> i feel SO MUCH better! i didnt get the "D", and my "movements" were fantastic- but i was doubled over in painful cramping- it was horrible.

and i never used to have a problem with apple juice.. but i think with Gluten Intolerance-> our systems go thru phases (temporary OR permanent) where it may be hard to digest other things

Thanks, I've never had problems w/ applejuice or any juice before, I hope I don't have that fructose thing! Did you see my other thread? I was having problems last week so I thought my aggravated stomach couldn't handle apple juice today.

When I see my GI at the end of the month I'll ask him to test for the fructose intolerance.

My 5 yr old son and 8 yr old daughter get D from apple juice. Always have! It is the only thing that does it so I don't know what it is about the apple. They have other Frutose things with no problem.

hmmm curious.

I hope you feel better!

My son gets D from apple juice too! Same thing, always has. Even as a little baby, people would say "don't you give him a juice bottle?" And I'd say "not unless I want to dehydrate and kill him!" :0) Just a few weeks ago, shortly after I was diagnosed with Celiac, that same son, now 11, decided he wanted to try gluten-free too. He's feeling so much better! He used to fart up a storm and complain of back pain, tummy pain, D, and was generally very cranky and emotional. Since going wheat free he's like a new kid! Thinking back to that apple juice thing....I wonder if he's had food allergies all his life, and I just didn't notice. O no, now I have "Mom guilt!"

Regardless.... I think getting D from juice is pretty common. It's a TON of sugar, despite it appearing "healthy." Lots of manufacturers make lower sugar versions of juices now. Perhaps you can try those? Now I'm not sure about the gluten content etc.... That would have to be researched, but I know that neither me nor my son do well with juices. Get well soon!

The one I had is organic(Apple and Eve), I only buy organic everything. And it has no added sugar, the only sugar in it is whatever sugar that was in the apples.

Anyway, I only had one itty bitty tetra pack yesterday(the one w/ a straw). We'll see today how it goes, I think I'm ok.

it might just be that it's just too much fiber for someone with a compromised digestive system to handle... not a big deal. when my little brother was a toddler- whenever he had "C", he would scream for my mom to get him apple juice to help him go.

maybe u could try mixing it with water- or waiting till he's more stable... or just picking a different juice from now on... (and not Pear juice- even more fructose AND fiber than apple)

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      For my Vit D3 deficiency it was recommended to take with Vit K2 (MK7) with the Vit D. The Vit K2 helps absorption of Vit D3. Fat also helps with absorption. I take Micro Ingredients Vit D3 5000 IU with Vit K2 100 micrograms (as menaquinone:MK-7). Comes in soft gels with coconut oil. Gluten free but not certified gluten free. Soy free, GMO free.

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.

Even though celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are, technically speaking, not allergic responses, it would seem, nonetheless, appropriate to include "gluten" in that list for the present purpose. That would insure that food companies would be consistent with including this information in labeling. Best estimates are that 1% of the general population, many undiagnosed of course, have celiac disease and more than that are gluten sensitive."

A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1
